619, self-recommendation
After sending Su Meihui home, Li Xiang was left for lunch.
Li Xiang:┓(′-`)┏
On the way back, Li Xiang was thinking about finding a training teacher for Su Meihui. It was easy to find an English teacher, but it was not easy to find a professional medical teacher. Li Xiang decided to ask Zhou Jiayi first. If it doesn't work, then look for Mr. Fan from Dingding Bookstore. There are so many medical books translated from abroad in the bookstore, and he must have reserved many translation experts in this field. At the worst, you can also go to college to find medical students. Professional English is a compulsory course they take.
From this he realized that his "Old Man and the Sea" had not yet found a helper.
In the afternoon, Li Xiang came to the studio again, and Xiao Xia timidly knocked on the office door. This girl who has been in the studio for more than half a year, but she is still shy whenever she sees Li Xiang, came to recommend herself. She wanted to recommend herself to Li Xiang as the recorder of "The Old Man and the Sea".
Li Xiang quickly recalled Xiao Xia’s resume in her mind. What she is doing now is marketing planning. I remember that she seems to have graduated from Shengjing University and her major is advertising.
"Tell me." Li Xiang decided to listen to her introduction.
Xiaoxia briefly explained her situation. She graduated from Shengjing University's advertising major, which also requires learning English. Her English has passed the eighth level of major.
"I usually read some original English works, such as "The Story of the Romans" and "The Baron on the Tree"..."
Xiao Xia said seriously and listed her own advantages bit by bit. It can be seen that she values this job very much, and Li Xiang finally agreed to let her give it a try.
"Thank you, thank you Mr. Li!" Xiao Xia thanked happily.
In fact, it is not difficult to be a recorder for "The Old Man and the Sea". It just requires responsibility urgently, high patience and carefulness, and the speed of typing should be fast. If your own people are competent, Li Xiang will of course be willing to give priority to them.
"You go and bring the computer, let's start now." Li Xiang said.
"Okay!" Xiao Xia left the office happily.
Xiao Zhang appeared in front of her immediately and asked with concern: "How is it? Has it become? Did your brother agree?"
Xiao Xia jumped and said, "It's time to start now."
Xiao Zhang waved his fist excitedly and followed Xiao Xia back to get the computer.
When Xiaoxia returned to the office, Zhou Jiayi also came. She heard that Li Xiang was about to start translating "The Old Man and the Sea" now, and wanted to see how Li Xiang put this book in her head.
According to Zhou Jiayi's process, translation is a very difficult task. The dictionary alone requires several types of information, as well as various information about religion, morality, fables, beliefs, etc. This is really a huge and complicated task.
But today Li Xiang's translation opened her eyes and was incredible.
Li Xiang sat on the sofa and told the words in English. Xiao Xia, who was beside him, quickly typing on the keyboard record. There was almost no pause in the middle. Li Xiang would stop and wait until Xiao Xia could not keep up with the speed.
Zhou Jiayi was deeply hit and left the office and went back to "retreat" to translate "Love Life". She also had to follow her "earth recipe" and translated it word by word, and it was hard to translate it even if she wanted to.
She comforted herself in her heart that Li Xiang is the author of "The Old Man and the Sea", so she naturally has an understanding of this book that is difficult for ordinary people to understand, and she can be translated quickly and can be said to the past.
Although the oral method is quick, Li wanted to consider Xiao Xia's ability to withstand and keep typing and recording, which is a heavy burden on his body and fingers.
After two hours of translation, I took a break twice in between, each time for 10 minutes, and the translation work of the day was temporarily over. Xiao Xia took the initiative to apply for another half an hour, but Li wanted her to go back and rest. Such a novel could not be translated in one or two days.
"To celebrate your wishes, I'll invite you to dinner tonight."
As soon as Xiaoxia returned to her seat, Xiao Zhang appeared and sent out an invitation with a smile.
"OK."
The two got off work together and came to a Chinese restaurant. Before dinner, Xiao Zhang put a gift on the table and said, "Open the gift for you."
"Is there a gift to eat?" Xiao Xia asked happily.
Xiao Zhang, who could catch the python with his bare hands, nodded and said, "It's not for you. My cousin came to Shengjing for fun during the summer vacation. He stayed here for a few days. He originally wanted to give him this gift, but he didn't want it..."
Xiao Xia's originally happy smile gradually disappeared, and she really wanted to throw the gift in her hand on the ground.
This big fool in front of you!
"Display it and take a look, don't be stunned."
Xiao Xia opened the gift without laughing, but she no longer felt the surprise she had just now.
This is a cherry mechanical keyboard.
Xiao Zhang said: "To translate "The Old Man and the Sea" to my brother, you must prepare a good keyboard. In the future, use this and connect it to your laptop. It is much easier and faster than using a film keyboard."
Xiaoxia didn't know what a film keyboard was or what a mechanical keyboard was, but she agreed to go back and give it a try.
After the two had supper, Xiao Zhang suggested taking a walk, but Xiao Xia was in a hurry to go back and had something to do.
When she got home, Xiaoxia took out the keyboard given by Xiao Zhang, connected it to the laptop and tried it. It was indeed easy to use.
"What a fool," she whispered.
This keyboard is very petite and easy to carry. The overall color is white and pink. It is obviously bought for girls, but Xiao Zhang said it was bought for his cousin and didn’t want it. Even if you make excuses, you can find a better one. Do you have to find such a clumsy one?!
Many people are like this. They obviously care a lot, but they have to deliberately pretend to be indifferent. No wonder Li Xiang complains that Xiao Zhang has been chasing him for so long but has not yet chased Xiao Xia. There is a reason.
After washing up, Xiaoxia sat at the desk, picked up her phone and sent Xiao Zhang a message, informing him that she had arrived home, said good night, then put away her phone and pressed it under the pillow. She sat back to the desk, turned off the light in the room, turned on the lamp on the desk, picked up the top book from the pile of books at hand, "Bachelor's English Vocabulary", and took notes while reading.
——
At night, Xiao Li’s house.
"Don't stuff pigs into your bags! Why do you always stuff them into your bags?"
Li Xiang looked helplessly as Dou Dou and Shishi kept stuffing pink piggy dolls into the mini suitcase.
Their family will set out to Yuezhou early tomorrow morning.
"We like it~" Director Dou said with confidence.
Shishi nodded in agreement.
Li Xiang counted, Dou Dou's suitcase was stuffed with two, but Shishi had already stuffed three! The two were not satisfied and were still stuffing them in.
"If you like it, just like it. Don't you still have a bag of piglet dolls at grandma's house? Why do you have to bring so many? Isn't it enough to bring your little green?" Li Xiang said.
Dou Dou and Shishi thought about it and discussed for a while.
Dou Dou threw the pink piglet doll that was about to be put into the trunk on the bed. The piglet doll hummed and rolled into the bed and disappeared.
"Okay, just give the elephant a face."
Li Xiang: "..."
He really wanted to tell this little man a cruel fact. The pig she took away by Zheng Yushi when she cried and shouted that she had now become a fat pig!
Chapter completed!
